Who doesn't love shoes??

Running shoes, I must confess I have a thing for running shoes. Some girls love high heels, my love is for those beautiful, usually neon colored, laced up sneakers. Investing in a good pair of running shoes is very important. It can make or break your run and eventually your body. From past experience, I have realized that it is good to listen to your body and retire your old shoes for new ones. My love is for newton running shoes. They provide a certain stability that I have never found with any other shoes and they are guaranteed. If you don't love them after 30 days, send them back, no questions asked. I will say they save your knees and use your calf muscles, so you experience soreness in your calves. I am on my second pair and feel these are right for me. Best advice is to listen to your body, 9/10 it is trying to tell you something. You need to change out running shoes every 250-300 miles to get the stability you need for running. With newtons they are good for 400-500 miles which is a big bonus. Not having the right running shoes can result in shin splints, hip flexor issues, foot pain, and much, much,  more. So go out and get yourself a nice pair of running shoes. Heck, most running stores will fit you for your ideal running shoe free of charge. Then you will have your perfect glass slippers.

Ahhhh with The Hallmark holiday of Valentines day tomorrow, I figured I would give you a sweet recipe for you to follow. These are delicious and you won't feel guilty eating them. Plus they are super easy.
Step 1- Just get a banana.
Step 2- Cut banana into slices.
Step 3- Smear a small amount of peanut butter on one side of a banana slice
Step 4- Place another banana slice on top of other slice, so it makes a banana sandwich
Step 5- Place in freezer for 30 minutes
Step 6- Melt white or dark chocolate in a bowl
Step 7- Take bananas out of the freezer and dip into chocolate
Step 8- Place dipped banana slices on parchment paper that is on a baking sheet and put back in the freezer for 20 minutes
Step 9- Remove, eat, and love life!!!! I really like them with white chocolate chips the best!
                    

These are very addicting so make sure you don't fall in the trap and eat them all! Happy Valentines day, so go run, grab your bananas slices and enjoy your holiday! You deserve it!
